All things Retro

I happened upon what it is maybe my new favorite site for all things retro. If you're into things like old toys, cars and/or bikes, Max Headroom, or, heck, almost anytyhing, check out Retro Thing.

There's an especially interesting story about how, in 1987, someone hijacked a local Chicago television signal and broadcast their own version Max Headroom. There's some good video of the hacking but, be warned, it does involve some mooning.

There's no way for me to summarize the site without continuing, as I've already done, to post way too many links. It's a good time and I plan visit Retro Thing on a regular basis.
